Hi,
The possibility of the pregnancy is less as all your tests were negative.
But as you are having history of irregular periods, if you want sure regarding the absence of the pregnancy better to go for blood test for pregnancy once.
It will give accurate result compared with urine test.
If the test comes negative, you can take tablets for withdrawal bleeding and can go for some contraceptive method with your doctor's advice.
Take care.
